66 c10 ammeter swap to voltmeter in original cluster

Any suggestions when restoring an original cluster but using All American Wiring upgrade. Paperwork says ammeter won't work the same. Suggestion if using a repro cluster lens for the ammeter ... Discharging vs. charging.
Possible change the gauge or lettering

Not sure what to do

I purchased a modified volt guage from captainfab for my 66 cluster.
Works great.

Sorry but I do not make any Ammeter to Voltmeter conversion parts. That must have been someone else.

Re: 66 c10 ammeter swap to voltmeter in original cluster

I had a guy named Gerald do the rehab work - impala1062@msn.com
But TBONE1964 did the work on the ammeter to voltmeter and the electrical oil pressure gauge.
